News, but not the serious kind
Want a margarita in a dribble glass, sir?

Blog Guy, I know you’re blogging from vacation, and some of your readers have been debating where you might have gone.
Thanks for your interest. I’m at a world-famous practical joke camp for adults.
A practical joke camp for adults? What’s it called?
“Camp Juvenile, where the novelty never wears off!” We spend two weeks learning the basics of really amusing practical jokes, with an emphasis on the classics.
It’s wonderful here. I love meals in the rustic mess hall, where every seat has a whoopee cushion and they only serve drinks in dribble glasses. Last night at campfire, the director doused the flames and the logs kept relighting. We were in stitches!
Meanwhile, you can’t walk five steps here without seeing a pile of poop or barf. Of course it’s all fake. I think.
I don’t know, Blog Guy. Sounds like you’re interacting with a bunch of poorly adjusted misfits.
Yeah, quite a departure from my daily blogging, huh? Hey, you want to smell this flower in my lapel?
Oops, gotta run. They’re making us write postcards to the folks back home. “Dear Mom, I’m having a great time. P.S., Mom, your shoelace is untied.”

I love punk’d.
In the first one, it looks like Ashton just told Halle that her dress straps were undone and she was on TV, resulting in Halle trying to clutch to her dress while laughing, embarrassed.
Never been in a pie-fight, though would like to be.. no, sir, pie-cide is not for me… Death by Chocolate however is an option
The last one was just precious…
Halle-luia what a Berry
Just joking…not.
I wonder how how much Kutcher paid for that ensemble.
Oh, so that’s Ashton Kutcher, and not some homeless bum. Although technically those the the same thing.
You know, I’ve never before seen someone laugh so hard that their dress fell off.
Nosmo, you’re just not going to the right parties…
With a tip of the dress strap to Allan Sherman.
Hello, mother.
Hello, father.
Here I am at
Camp Laugh a Lotta.
Where my dress now,
is always falling,
and photographers to me are always calling:
“Take it off!” er, “Smile”
and then a pie is thrown
and Ashton Kutcher
who’d have known
he dresses badly
so we laugh
and laugh
so very madly…
In high school, on a whim, I asked out an , uh, outgoing woman I knew from another high school. On our date, she looked just like Halle Berry in that photo — big hair, big laugh, and all.
Doc, you are a Legend.
A Legend I say.
The freshmen still speak of you with hushed voices of awe.
Her name was Sharon. Nosmo, you should have seen her sister Cheryl. They had a brother named Cam. Uh-oh.
